Abstract (en)
Provided is a front fork spring leg capable of stably maintaining air spring characteristics. The front fork spring leg has an inward-facing seal member (51), an outward-facing seal member (66), and a piston ring (24) arranged on an outer periphery of a guide (23) of a guide rod (22) sequentially in this order along an axial direction of the guide from the side close to an inner air spring chamber (50) toward the side far from the same. The inward-facing seal member (51) has a lip which is slidably in contact with the inner periphery of the guide cylinder (21), with this lip being oriented toward the inner air spring chamber (50) while the outward-facing seal member (66) has a lip which is slidably in contact with the inner periphery of the guide cylinder (21), with this lip being oriented in the opposite direction to the inner air spring chamber (50).
